I will never understand the leftist desire to institutionalize everything. Why in the world should anybody want our political system to become a system of mass conformity to a much greater degree than it already is?

It's not evident that mass conforming is the result of public financing. In what countries that exercise public financing has that been the case?

If you want to avoid mass conforming, avoiding putting election funding in the hands of the 1% is how you do it.
